 On the other hand, another local organization of the ruling party explained, &#8220;There has been no mass defection as announced. The confusion has deepened. If it is true that the ruling party, which is one of his relatives, is opposed to the move, it will have a major impact on the future of President Moon Jae-in. In the background, there is a scandal that has emerged around the president. Kim Hyun, the Tokyo bureau chief of the Korea Financial Daily, tells us, &#8220;There is a scandal that has emerged around the president.
 Kim Hyun, the Tokyo bureau chief of the Korea Financial Daily, said, &#8220;There are allegations of fraud surrounding the Ulsan mayoral election. The Seoul Central District Public Prosecutors Office has January 2008. In January 2008, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office indicted a number of key government officials. In January 2008, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office indicted a number of government officials. In January 2008, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office indicted a series of government officials. In January 2008, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office indicted a series of government officials. A number of government and ruling party officials are said to have interfered unfairly in the election.
 The elected mayor of Ulsan, Song Cheol-ho, a former chief political secretary of Cheong Wa Dae, a former civil affairs secretary, and others. 13 13 people, including Ulsan Mayor Song Cheol-ho, a former chief political secretary of Cheong Wa Dae, and a former civil affairs secretary, were indicted at home for violating the Public Office Election Law. In addition April 2009 In April 2009, two additional people, including the head of the Office of the National Policy Situation, were indicted. The dignitaries arrested in this case were 15 In April 2009, two more people were indicted, including the head of the National Political Situation Office.
<h2>Corruption of opposition candidates before the election</h2>
 The mayoral election in Ulsan was held in June 18 The election was held in June 2006. Song Cheol-ho, who ran as a candidate for the ruling party, defeated the incumbent, who was affiliated with the opposition party. Mr. Kim continues.
 According to the indictment, prior to the election, the presidential secretary instructed the Ulsan police to investigate the opposition candidate and his aides on suspicion of corruption. As a result, Song Cheol-ho won the mayoral election. However, both the opposition candidate and his aides were not indicted after the election. 
 In addition, a key figure in Cheong Wa Dae asked his rival in the ruling party, who was vying with Song Cheol-ho for the nomination, to abandon his candidacy. It is suspected that Cheong Wa Dae systematically assisted Song Cheol Ho in making his campaign pledges and illegally took internal city documents.

 The Ulsan mayoral election meddling case is the most serious allegation of fraud under the Moon Jae-in administration. The trial, however, has been slow to get underway. It has been more than two years since the indictment was filed, and there is no prospect of a verdict in the first trial.
 The main reason for this is that the government&#8217;s former minister of justice, who was at odds with the attorney general (the current opposition presidential candidate), obstructed the investigation by massively moving the prosecutors in charge to the left.
 The delay in the trial, however, may ultimately prove fatal for President Moon Jae-in.
 The focus of the investigation into the series of allegations is whether or not Im Jong-SOK, who was the number two secretary general of Cheong Wa Dae at the time of the incident, was involved. This is because the seven secretariats of Cheong Wa Dae were mobilized to help Song Cheol-ho win the election, and only the secretary-general or President Moon Jae-in himself could have done it.
 The prosecutors have so far been unable to secure enough evidence to indict Mr. Jong Dae Dae Dae today due to the tight guards of the ruling party and the government. However, if the opposition party wins the presidential election, the situation may change drastically.
 Local elections are scheduled to be held in June. In Ulsan, a liberal candidate had never won until Song Cheol-ho won the last election. if the opposition party wins the next presidential election in March and the Ulsan mayoral election, and the prosecutors secure new evidence to indict Ri Jong-zo, the situation will change dramatically. The investigation will move on to the secretary general. If it becomes clear that he was involved in the incident, the investigation could lead to President Moon Jae-in&#8217;s arrest.
 President Moon Jae-in would have had nothing to worry about if the trial had been completed during his term of office and the indictees had received light sentences and the case had been closed. However, as the case dragged on, even the ruling party voiced its opposition.
 The government&#8217;s pressure on the prosecutors and judiciary to cover up the injustice may lead to President Moon Jae-in strangling himself.
